Xonami.
This site remains available for anyone who
purchased XO Wave in the past.
However, please keep in mind that as discontinued software:

Technical support is discontinued, though we will do our best to continue to provide
email support, especially to anyone who purchased recently.

This option sets the playback start location to the current playback
location (sometimes called the "play head"), so next time
you start playback, it will start from here.
If you try to set the playback start location to a time
after the current end, the end will be set to the end of the
session. Note that current selection has no effect on this option,
only the current playback location.

The Playback Settings window offers full control
over pre-roll and post-roll. The Time menu's
Pre/Post-Roll Type submenu offers direct access
to the pre-roll and post-roll types from the Playback
Settings window. Roll durations must still be specified
in the window, however.

When playing back audio, the Space Bar can either
Pause playback (if this option is checked) or
Stop playback. When pausing, Space will
resume playback from the spot where playback was paused. In
this mode, you can still stop playback by
using Return. If this option is unchecked, the
spacebar will reset playback and stop the audio engine.
This option is
also available as the far-right icon in the Transport window, or the
Transport Area of any Edit or
Mix window.

With Quantized Editing (also called snap-to-grid)
on, edits will automatically be slightly adjusted to align with
the nearest quantization points. Quantization points occur at
(usually) regular intervals as defined in the Time area of the
Edit window's toolbar. For example, if you
select Timecode and Frames in
the Toolbar, then Quantized Editing will always
snap your edits to the nearest timecode frame. Quantized
Editing can also be controlled by the QZ button in the
Edit window's Time Area.

Normally, playback bounds are always changed when the selection is
changed. That is, when you make a selection, playback will start
at the new selection start and end at the new selection end. By
un-checking this option, changing the selection will not change
the playback bounds. This is also accessible as the
M button in the Edit window's Time
Area.

When enabled, Edit windows always show the playback
cursor, so they advance while playing. When Follow
Playback is disabled, you can look at one part of a
track in an Edit window while listening to
another part of the track. This is also available as the
F button in each Edit window's
Time Area.
